CrowdRide

The CrowdRide wrote: The system would itself recalculate the transfers so that the passenger could reach the desired destination as quickly as possible. Of course, public transport could be integrated into the system right from the start, and it can be upgraded to freight services. The goal is to bring the speed and usability of the transport as close as possible when using our own vehicle. Users appear in the system in two roles - as a passenger and as a driver. The driver was willing to share the vacant seats in his car, and the passenger had to route the system through those seats in a number of public transports to the rail destinations. The ideal user uses both roles. For interaction between passenger and driver is by smartphone application... Source: EIT Climate KIC's Climathon

Green social network

TrackEarthON wrote: Interactive social network that will challenge inner competitiveness among consumers, through collecting “green points” from bought food products. Such competitiveness has ability to create a critical public mass that can further attract the food production industry by favorising parties that invest in green technologies. Altogether, it will increase the public awareness about the climate change and how their daily choices (can) impact it: think globally, act locally!.. Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Desalinating sea water

Aqua Ziwa wrote: With our solution we are able to desalinate 2000l of sea water in an hour into drinkable water. The whole solution is estimated to cost 380. 000€ per unit and does not require many maintenance nor special employee to operate it. Our sollution could be applied into variable areas like ports, hotels, govrnments, but our beachhead market are privately owned islands. As the owners of them are usually also supporters of green technology we believe we'll also with their support have easier antrance in muncipality and government markets...

Temperature sensitive ink

Mysteria Colorum - MyCol wrote: About quarter of temperature sensitive food is wasted due to improper storing temperature, and still we may have troubles with low quality and unsafe food. Our solution is producing temperature sensitive ink and printing colour-changing labels. Food producers will use them on each individual temperature-sensitive product to indicate if it was not overheated. This will help preventing food waste during storing and transport and enable consumers to trust in the food quality... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

BRICRO brick

BRICRO wrote: Carbon footprint is broadly defined as carbon dioxide (co2) caused by an individual, event, organization or product. Fired solid clay brick is a popular building material, which produces enourmous emissions of co2 because of the extremely high temperature needed for its production. Bricro brick is made of saw-dust bonded with bacteria. It is produced at ambient temperature, 100% organic and environmental friendly. Production of bricro bricks will reduce co2 emissions in brick production industry by up to 80%. Bricro brick fulfils eurocode construction norms as a construction material and, because of its spongy structure, as a thermal insulation. Specific bricro brick shape also provides earthquake resistance... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

No more microfibres

PlanetCare wrote: Every time we wash our clothes – especially if we wash synthetic fabrics, we release millions of microparticles into the world water supply, that eventually ends up in the ocean. But it doesn't have to be that way. Because when we install our filter technology into the next generation of washing machines and when consumers put this filters into existing washing machines, we capture those microfibres before they're ever released. So that they can be disposed at safety and responsibly... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Microbial clean-up of eutrophic waters

EIDYA wrote: Eidya provides the aquaculture sector with the first comprehensive, microbial nature-based solution to remove excess nutrients from the water environment. These deteriorate health status of the farmed organisms and are also responsible for harmful algal blooms, which can kill off entire aquacultures. The cost of profit and jobs loss, ecosystem reclamation, decline in turism, recreational activities and ecosystem services usually counts in millions. Eidya prevents that. What's more, people consume more farmed than caught aquatic organisms, a trend which is expected to grow as the world's population increases. Hence, aquacultures worldwide will keep using more feed resources... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad
